INSTRUCTIONAL FACULTY, SUMMER SESSION - STATE SUPPORT
$974.00
$3,516.00
Pleas ensure that the rate you key into the Summer Hiring Module is the rate you wish to pay the new faculty member per unit. See how that rate compares to other AY faculty. 9

10. Salary / Current Faculty
Faculty who held a Fall 2007 and/or Spring 2008 appointment (2360, 2361, 2358, 2359, and 2481) will be paid at the “1/30th rate” calculated according to the following formula:
(FT AY Salary/30) = 1/30th Unit Rate x (# Summer WTUs) = Total Pay Amount
Example:
A faculty member with a (full-time) monthly base of $7,109 teaching one 3 unit course in any summer session would earn $8,532 for that course:
($7,109 x 12 = $85,308/ 30) = $2,844 x (3WTU) = $8,532.00
(Monthly base x 12 /30) = Unit Rate x # WTU = Salary
Continuing Faculty, those who taught at least one semester in are to be paid using the 1/30th formula. The module will populate the AY base. A faculty member can withdraw from a low enrolled course at the second class meeting. The MOU does allow for a class to be taught if low enrolled. The MOU allows for a 5% reduction for each student below 15. However, the minimum amount paid cannot be lower than 85%.
New faculty are to be hired at the appropriate rate from the Summer Salary Schedule.

11. Salary / Low Enrollment
Classes for Summer 2008 that are low enrolled are subject to compensation based enrollment. A faculty member’s salary is to be reduced by 5% for each student below, to a maximum reduction of 15%.
If a course has an enrollment of:
> 15 Students = 100% Salary
14 Students = 95% Salary [multiply unit rate by 1.05]
13 Students = 90% Salary [multiply unit rate by 1.10]
< 12 Students = 85% Salary [multiply unit rate by 1.15]
A 15 percent reduction is the greatest a faculty member’s unit rate can be reduced. If the course to which a faculty unit employee has been assigned has enrollmen t of fewer than fifteen (15) students, at the second class meeting, s/he may withdraw from the appointment at that time, or the class may be cancelled.
Example: Barry Jones has a Summer base unit rate of $2,636 and 14 Students enrolled in his Summer Session 1 class worth 3 units, at Census on 7/22/08:
$2,636 /1.05 = $2,510 x 3 WTU = $7,530 11
